Coaching Tips
- •The wider angle trains rising closer to a finishing position
- •Breathe steadily — don't hold your breath through the hold
Common Mistakes
- ✕Attempting this variation before building a base with flatter-angle or standard-grip riser holds first
- ✕Using too much resistance to reach the wide angle at all, sacrificing the finger-hooked grip position to do so
